Tips for getting the most from it
First, start with the Easy offers, because they usually need the smallest deposit and the simplest steps. Then, once you are comfortable, move on to the Medium and Advanced offers.
For example, a typical Easy offer asks you to place a small qualifying bet to unlock a free bet. After that, open the how-to-claim guide on the offer, so you meet every condition. Finally, mark the offer as done, so your list only shows the ones you still have to claim.
In addition, always read the full terms on the bookmaker’s own site before you deposit, because offers can change at short notice.
Because each chapter is short, you can also rewatch one step at a time. Then, once the idea makes sense, compare the current offers and pick the one that suits you. Meanwhile, keep an eye on expiry dates, since most free bets only last a few days. Above all, only bet what you can afford to lose.
About this video: How to Use Sports Compare
How to Use Sports Compare is a quick tour of the site, showing how to find the best free bets and keep track of the ones you’ve claimed.
First, the video explains how every offer is checked against the bookmaker’s terms and ranked by estimated value. In other words, it shows what an offer is really worth, not just the headline figure. Today’s top offer sits right above the list.
Next, it covers the tools for narrowing things down. The Easy, Medium and Advanced tabs filter by how much effort an offer takes, and the search box finds a bookmaker by name. You can also sort by biggest free bet, lowest stake or most popular, or choose a stake or risk level under More filters.
Finally, the video shows what each offer card tells you, and how the How to claim guide gives you step-by-step instructions. Once you’ve claimed an offer, tap Mark as done. The progress bar then shows how much value is still left to claim.
However, rules and offers change. For that reason, we check every video against the Gambling Commission and other official sources. In fact, we last checked this one on 13 October 2026.
